There is no denying that Reliance Jio aggressive push has forced companies like Airtel and Vodafone to revamped some of their postpaid and prepaid plans. For high data users, the 1GB data per day offer may not be enough for most days.

Apart from the data benefits, Airtel prepaid customers are also offered free local and STD voice calls, free roaming, and, 100 SMS per day, which translate to a total of 2800 SMS over the period of 28 days. Both the plans are available for prepaid users and will be valid for 28 days. It offers 125GB 4G data along with unlimited voice calling and SMS benefits. You can also send 100 SMSes per day.

The 509 plans from Airtel and Vodafone are competitive and probably enough to retain their respective customers but may need a little extra to make Jio customers jump ship. In this plan of the company one can enjoy 56 GB, 4 G data.

It's good to see Airtel matching up with Reliance Jio when it comes to tariff plans because the latter was a leader a few months ago in the tariff plans department.
